Religion in Government

This is true for ANY married couple - including heterosexual marriages between atheists, interracial couples, non-Christians (pagans and Satanists, oh my!) - perhaps a solution to your dilemma would be to remove all social benefits to all couples?Perhaps a tab should be kept on all couples and if they divorce, they must pay back the full sum of any monetary benefits they received during their marriage?I checked out the link to the Emmitsburg Dispatch - the sole reason behind the authors "logical" reasoning that homosexuals cannot marry is that they cannot procreate. Firstly, we know this is not true; we also know that they can adopt. Secondly, the same logic should require fertility testing of heterosexuals to prevent the infertile from marrying. What about equal rights? Or simple respect?

Jar - nice, especially: It would appear, since Riverrat is so opposed to one group unfairly paying for another, that he should now favor homosexual marriage. After all, it appears that relative to heteros, homosexuals are now being unfairly overcharged for services received.Unless it's about more than the money.If so I hope it's a logical, social argument.
